Pedro Tammela says: ==================== selftests/tc-testing: parallel tdc As the number of tdc tests is growing, so is our completion wall time. One of the ideas to improve this is to run tests in parallel, as they are self contained. This series allows for tests to run in parallel, in batches of 32 tests. Not all tests can run in parallel as they might conflict with each other. The code will still honor this requirement even when trying to run the tests over the worker pool. In order to make this happen we had to localize the test resources (patches 1 and 2), where instead of having all tests sharing one single namespace and veths devices each test now gets it's own local namespace and devices. Even though the tests serialize over rtnl_lock in the kernel, we measured a speedup of about 3x in a test VM. ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230919135404.1778595-1-pctammela@mojatatu.com Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
